Telefónica Digital

Automating all settlement processes, including tax reconciliation, local currency support and analytics

Working towards a standardized and open payment platform for all app stores and content providers

In early 2013, Bango and Telefónica Digital announced a global partnership that creates an enhanced direct-to-bill payment experience for mobile app stores. The partnership combines Bango's frictionless payment experience with Telefónica's BlueVia Payment APIs, connecting over 314 million chargeable customers worldwide to the Bango Payments Platform. The agreement is particularly designed to facilitate payments in fast-growing emerging markets such as those in Latin America, where the penetration of credit cards and bank accounts can be very low.

A key goal of the partnership is to accelerate the availability of a standardized and open payment platform for all app stores and content providers and to dramatically improve the customer experience. The advantage to the customer is a seamless payment flow with no requirement to enter personal information or leave the payment session.

As well as technology to improve the user experience, Bango is contributing to the partnership its market-leading expertise in managing payments at mass scale, developed over several years with industry-leading partners, such as BlackBerry, Facebook and others. The Bango platform expands the attractiveness of carrier billing to third parties by automating all settlement processes, including tax reconciliation, local currency support and providing sophisticated analytics and reporting that enable app stores to optimize the mobile user experience.

Commenting on the partnership, Bango CEO Ray Anderson said "Telefónica and Bango share a strategic vision: to widen access to paid content by standardizing and simplifying operator-billed mobile payments. BlueVia is a valuable and bold initiative by Telefónica to establish a unified set of billing APIs. We will standardize on BlueVia to connect with Telefónica’s 314 million subscribers around the world and look forward to welcoming other operators who join this initiative."

Vodafone

Live carrier billing connections are in place with several leading app stores, including BlackBerry and Facebook

Integration with Vodafone's global billing hub, provides a single billing point across multiple markets

Building on the history of mobile payment innovation between Bango and Vodafone

Bango and Vodafone partner under a broad-based global aggregation agreement. The partnership is designed to open-up carrier billing as a preferred payment method for global web brands and content publishers, enabling them to more effectively monetize their customers on the mobile web, and to refine the purchasing experience for Vodafone's subscriber base that reaches into the hundreds of millions.

Through this partnership, the companies combine the reach of Vodafone's content billing capabilities with the Bango Payments Platform, which makes it easy for content owners to collect payments from mobile device users. With live direct carrier billing connections in place with several leading app stores, including BlackBerry and Facebook, Bango and Vodafone have a history of close cooperation in the field of mobile payments. In 2004 Bango became the first company to offer Vodafone's "m-pay" billing platform in the UK. Bango then partnered with Vodafone to enable billing for the launch of the Vodafone Live! portal in 2005 and subsequently spread its billing relationships into other major Vodafone markets including Germany and Spain.

Beginning in 2010, Bango integrated with Vodafone's global billing hub, which provides a billing point across multiple markets. Vodafone is a world leader in the delivery of network services to third parties. The payments gateway in particular is a very strong network feature, which means Bango can more easily bring carrier billing to our global app store and content partners.

Deutsche Telekom

Working together to open-up carrier billing across Deutsche Telekom's geographical footprint

Providing single click payments for web, apps and other content types

State of the art mobile billing technology, including "reserve and capture" two phase payment processing

Deutsche Telekom, the German Mobile Network Operator with operations across the globe, boasts a subscriber base that exceeds 150 million. In November 2012 Bango and Deutsche Telekom entered into a global agreement to open-up mobile payments more widely to on-line businesses. As a result of the agreement, publishers connecting to the Bango payment platform can now offer their customers a one-click method of charging mobile purchases to their Deutsche Telekom phone account. The partnership is significant in its huge reach and in opening-up several European markets through a single point of integration.

Deutsche Telekom and Bango are targeting content owners seeking to offer single-click payment methods as an alternative to traditional PC-based online payment. Bango's relationship with Deutsche Telekom is mature and includes direct carrier billing integration with several leading app stores.

Payments for digital content including apps, music, video, books, web sites and more

Bango first launched a direct carrier billing partnership with AT&T (then Cingular Wireless) back in 2005. The companies pioneered the first true mobile web payments experience, using the "WAP" browser designed for feature phones. This allowed the first generation of AT&T's mobile internet users to enjoy browse-and-buy payments, which would eventually take over from PSMS billing as the preferred payment method to enable carrier billing.

Later, AT&T and Bango worked together to produce the mobile web payment flows that were incorporated into the mobile industry "Consumer Best Practices" standard for the US market. In 2010, the companies partnered to launch direct carrier billing for the BlackBerry World, another first in the US market.

Indosat

Indosat is a leading mobile operator in Indonesia, where the smartphone market is growing rapidly, having seen growth of 154% in the 12 months to July 2014

Indosat has used the Bango Payment Platform to launch one-click payment for Google Play, Windows Phone Store and BlackBerry World

Bango’s partnership with Indosat is a long-term, strategic relationship, which demonstrates the continued benefit of a single point of integration to reach the range of app stores

Indosat was integrated into the Bango Payment Platform in 2012, and initially activated carrier billing for users of BlackBerry World and then Microsoft’s Windows Phone Store. In 2014 Indosat activated Google Play through Bango. The Bango Payment Platform manages the complexities of launching mobile commerce in a fast-developing market such as Indonesia, including compliance with local tax and regulatory requirements, as well as support for local currency (Rupiah). The result is an unrivalled speed to market and revenue.

After the Windows Phone Store activation in 2013, President Director & CEO of Indosat, Alexander Rusli said “we are happy to be partnering with Bango to make operator billing in Indonesia attractive for app stores and content providers. This partnership between Indosat and Bango is the first of its kind in Indonesia. This shows our commitment to providing the best value and experience for Indosat customers. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Bango, extending the reach of frictionless payment to all.”

“Bango ticked all the boxes,” said Prince Thomas, du’s digital services development lead. “We wanted to work with a partner that has experience across all OEMs, a partner that has done this before, and that would allow us to go to market quickly. Bango was a logical conclusion to our search.”

du selected Bango to underpin its carrier billing across all app stores. It launched with Samsung GALAXY Apps in October 2014, allowing du customers to enjoy frictionless payment for apps and in-app purchases, paying on their phone bill without the need to register personal details.

Thomas says early feedback is positive. “We’re already seeing three times as many transactions than previously,” said Thomas. “And this is without any PR or marketing support. Customers have come to this independently.” Bango, he adds, is a long-term partner. “We’re already talking to Bango about the next phase. Where does carrier billing go next? We’re looking at a ‘digical’ world – a blend of digital and physical.”

Windows Phone Store

Frictionless one-click payment for Windows Phone users drives more than double the number of paid downloads compared to credit card billing

Service rolled out in new Windows Phone markets, beginning in Indonesia and Canada

Bango provides Direct Carrier Billing for Microsoft's Windows Phone Store in a number of markets. This enables Windows Phone users to purchase digital content without the use of premium SMS messages or the limitations of credit cards. Instead, users enjoy one-click carrier billing, charging the cost to their phone bill, without the need to register personal details.

Microsoft's own research reveals that carrier billing, when offered, is preferred by 75% of Windows Phone users who have access to it and drives more than double the number of paid downloads compared to credit card billing. Recognizing this transformative effect, Microsoft has overseen a gradual expansion of carrier billing in the Windows Phone Store. Microsoft has partnered with Bango to launch carrier billing in several markets, due to the depth and quality of Bango's existing operator connections across a range of app stores and operators

Speaking on the launch of the first market, for the mobile operator Indosat in Indonesia, Todd Brix, general manager of Windows Phone Store said "mobile operator billing gives consumers a convenient payment option with significantly higher conversion rates than credit cards, greatly benefiting Windows Phone 8 customers and developers. We're happy to see companies like Bango and Indosat working together to expand monetization opportunities for developers and provide seamless purchasing experiences for Windows Phone users."

Google Play

Google Play users enjoy frictionless carrier billing, paying on their phone bill, without the need to register personal details

Bango's service boosts conversion rates and developer monetization

Bango ensures Google Play is successful in new mobile markets, where carrier billing is an essential payment method

Bango gives operators the ability to quickly activate carrier billing in Google Play, to begin monetization from the world’s biggest app store. Carrier billing then becomes an integrated part of the Google Checkout payment flow for all downloads and in-app purchases.

Google Play is the content ecosystem pre-configured with Google's Android operating system, which is the most widely installed mobile platform in use globally. By mid-2013 Google reported downloads of 2.5 billion apps per month, and held a 70% share of the global smartphone market.

The first mobile network operator to launch a Bango connection into Google Play was Telstra, in Australia, during December 2012. Speaking at the time, CEO Ray Anderson said "as user numbers soar, we will see an increasing flow of developer talent and compelling content channelled through Google Play. We're expecting that carrier billing from Bango will boost conversion rates and developer monetization. It's a new weapon in Google's armoury".

Bango powers carrier billing for apps and in app purchases for Mozilla's Firefox Marketplace. Working in partnership with Telefónica Digital, Bango delivers the smoothest possible payment experience in this emerging app store.

Firefox Marketplace is based on open web standards and targets fast-growing emerging markets. This was the first app store to sign up to the enhanced, direct-to-bill payments experience which Bango and Telefónica Digital first announced in early 2013. This partnership combines Bango's frictionless payment experience with Telefónica's BlueVia Payment APIs.

Mozilla's selection of Bango and Telefónica is further endorsement of carrier billing as the fast-path to mobile monetization in developing markets. The mass market combination of phone and phone bill is ideally suited to the sort of low-value billing prominent on smartphones in the developing world, and meets consumer expectation for a seamless billing experience. Credit cards have low penetration on a global basis and are weighed down by high fixed costs and minimum transaction values. Carrier billing is ideally suited to high volume, low value transactions, and both Bango and Telefónica Digital believe that the approach taken by Mozilla will be very attractive for developers and publishers wanting to capitalize on a low-cost, low-friction, route to market.

Bango CEO Ray Anderson welcomed the partnership, commenting: "Bango and Mozilla both believe in the democratizing power of open standards, and we're proud to be helping to power an initiative with the potential to transform the app economy. This agreement is another significant milestone towards Bango's strategy of delivering a de facto open payments standard for the mobile internet."

Samsung GALAXY Apps

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., is one of the world's largest technology companies and the world's leading smartphone manufacturer

Bango provides carrier billing, collection and settlement for digital content - such as games, e-books, music and videos - purchased through the Samsung GALAXY Apps store

Late 2014 saw the first Samsung DCB launch in the continent of Africa when Bango launched Direct Carrier Billing (DCB) for Samsung GALAXY Apps with Telkom South Africa

Samsung integrated with the Bango Payment Platform, unlocking one-click payment in their app store, for two reasons. First, it confirms that paying for content and services on the mobile phone bill is an essential component of today’s smartphone experience. Secondly, when the world’s largest smartphone maker standardizes on the Bango Payment Platform, it makes clear that the carrier billing market has reached maturity.

Market maturity is vital in payments. Immature markets are unpredictable, complicated to engage with and lack clear leadership. It’s much harder to decide what technology to use and which partner to work with in a young market. Samsung was a pioneer of paid content on smartphones, through a patchwork of “aggregator” suppliers of varying capability and quality. Bango has raised the bar by providing a single global platform for frictionless payment. Adopting the Bango Payment Platform upgrades the entire payment experience for Samsung’s customers, and the content providers selling through Samsung devices.

Bango for operators

Driving value for the entire mobile ecosystem, including operators, developers and users

BlackBerry has pioneered the use of carrier billing for app stores. BlackBerry's App World was the first of the major app stores to focus on rolling out carrier billing on a global basis, and to demonstrate the value of frictionless payment to operators, developers, content providers, and smartphone users.

Today, Bango and BlackBerry have launched carrier billing in more than 60 markets, enabling BlackBerry World customers to pay for apps directly on their mobile phone bill. Carrier billing is also integrated with the BlackBerry Payment Service, which enables developers and content providers to offer in-app purchases as well as supporting one-off and subscription-based purchases, without interrupting the customer's app experience. Bango also provides developer on-boarding, financial settlement, reporting, currency exchange and tax handling services for BlackBerry.

Bango continues to help BlackBerry expand its billing coverage into emerging markets in Asia Pacific and Latin America where smartphone uptake is growing rapidly and carrier billing is the most powerful billing option. The case for further roll-outs is compelling: Aggregated BlackBerry data indicates that customers’ propensity to purchase apps on BlackBerry App World increases when carrier billing is offered, with an average of 75% of gross sales transacted through the carrier and average carrier revenues derived from apps increased between 100%-300% after launch.
